When we talk about hacking these days we're not talking about something that's confined to computers and mobile devices only. Sure, the majority of cybercrime that's carried out currently revolves around these mechanisms, but with the global push toward the Internet of Things, the attack sphere is growing.

It doesn't matter how big or small your business is, or whether its annual revenue places it on the Fortune 500 list. If you run an enterprise, you are a potential target of cybercrime. It's as simple as that.

From the halls of universities to the Oval Office, the issue of cybersecurity is occupying an increasingly central role in everyday life. The large growth in cybersecurity efforts in organizations of all types is undoubtedly due in large part to the havoc that hackers wreaked in 2014.

Cybersecurity isn't in the periphery anymore. It's not something you give five minutes of thought to at a corporate meeting and then forget for the rest of the year. Instead, it's front and center. It's in the headlines. It surrounds us all the time now.
